'a number' (x) 'difference ' - subtraction (-)

OpenStudy (danjs):

this is just one step here, difference a number and 4 --- X - 4

OpenStudy (youngstudier):

So C is correct?

OpenStudy (danjs):

yes, if you need practice with these types of probs, maybe try changing the other 3 variable expressions in the answers into their phrase sentence

OpenStudy (danjs):

like D) -4x " The product of a number and negative 4
